"Okay, I'll get the money back as soon as possible, Lin San's side, you can first threaten him with his private rent increase, so that he can give us a few days of grace." After thinking about it, Yuan Junxian also instructed, "Don't tell anyone else about this." ”

"Huh?" Xu Yan's eyebrows twisted a small pimple, "Why?" She also plans to spread the word about it and use it to draw in the neighborhood.

"Lin San dares to deceive his superiors and subordinates to do this kind of thing, he must have thought of a way back, if he annoys him and asks him to chew his tongue in front of Master Lin, in case Master Lin takes back the field, it will cut off the way of life in the village."

Yuan Junxian thinks long-term, although the rent has risen, but everyone can still save money by tightening their belts, if the field is taken back, it is equivalent to breaking everyone's life, and everything is over!

After listening to Yuan Junxian's explanation, Xu Yan nodded his head in agreement: "That's the reason." ”

As she spoke, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, would a dock worker think about the problem so carefully? If Yuan Junxian had this mind, he wouldn't be so mixed up that he wouldn't even have the money to eat rice for his children now.

"Brother Yuan, how do you know so much?" Xu Yan lowered his voice and asked casually.

Yuan Junxian looked calm, he explained: "I used to be a dart master, and I naturally know a lot about traveling from south to north. ”

Xu Yan looked at him in surprise: "You have also been a dart master?" So why not continue to do it? The dart master is much better than the dock worker. ”

"I lost the mark, and the game drove me away. After having a small break, I am no longer suitable to work as a dart master. Yuan Junxian said indifferently, as if the past had nothing to do with him.

"I see, can you tell me about the fun things about the dart movement?" Xu Yan's eyes widened curiously, and he pulled his arm and shook it with great interest.

She had only seen the profession of a dart master on TV before, and it was very exciting. Now that there is a living former dart master by his side, the gossip soul in Xu Yan's bones can't help but burn.

Who would have expected Yuan Junxian to be a little puzzled: "Well, it's actually nothing, it's just a hurry." ”

A faint sentence dispelled Xu Yan's enthusiasm.

It was already late at night when he rushed home, Xu Yan rubbed his sore calves and hurried to bed. She has to deal with Lin San tomorrow, and she has to take care of her spirits.

Not surprisingly, Lin San came to the Yuan family early, and stretched out his hand to ask for money: "Three dollars for rent, give it!" ”

Xu Yan had a smile on his face: "Alas, I told Brother Yuan about this yesterday, but he said that I lied to him, and said that he went to the government to ask, and the rent only needs to be paid two dollars of silver." Brother Lin, why do you collect more rent than the one penny reported by the government? ”

Saying this, Lin San was annoyed and angry, and slapped the table and shouted: "What do you mean? Say I'm Lin Samadhi, isn't it? You go and inquire, is my Lin San this kind of person? ”

Xu Yan shrank his shoulders back, and deliberately made a worried look: "Brother Lin, don't be angry, the main thing is that the family really can't open the pot." This money is very important to us, and it is not safe to know what we pay! Otherwise, after two days, Brother Yuan will pay his salary, and we will make up the rent, you don't think so. ”

Xu Yan's words seemed soft, but they were reasonable. In the end, he was a thief, and after Lin San scolded a few words of "poor ghost" in his mouth, he still relented: "Don't say that I won't give you face, I will send the rent over myself in three days, otherwise you won't rent this land!" ”

Lin San put down the cruel words, and then walked away.

Xu Yan breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, but looking at the dilapidated scene in the courtyard, he couldn't help but feel worried.

Yuan Junxian has a family background, and he really can't get any money. Now Yuan Junxian needs to see a doctor to treat his eye disease, Yuan Xiu can't be hungry, Xu Yan's eyes are about to stare like coins, she has to quickly find a way to make some money.

The next day, after Xu Yan finished eating the breakfast prepared by Yuan Junxian, he took Yuan Xiu to the fat aunt's house.

The fat aunt's family planted more than a dozen acres of land, and the husband and wife were busy working, and they were almost tired and broken in the harvest season.

Xu Yan doesn't know how to do farm work, but she is clever, learns quickly, and is not afraid of hardship. She will do whatever the fat aunt asks her to do, and she is not ambiguous at all.

Yuan Xiu didn't know how to work, he just wore a big straw hat, sat on the ridge and accompanied Xu Yan, and handed her water from time to time, and the fat aunt who watched it was envious: "If only my son were so obedient!" ”

Xu Yan touched Yuan Xiu's little head and wiped his sweat, his heart was warm.

A few days later, Yuan Junxian's salary was finally sent to his hand, almost five dollars of silver.

But Yuan Junxian only took two coins of silver and handed it to Lin San, and no matter what he said, he just dealt with it with a stuffy face, making Lin San speechless.

On this day, after harvesting the wheat, Xu Yan helped clean up the chicken coop, and he couldn't help but have a smell on his body, which smelled very bad.

The fat aunt is very good to her and Yuan Xiu, Xu Yan is grateful, and she will definitely take the initiative to do what she can help do.
